TEST DRIVE MEME

Considering apping to EACHDRAIDH? Why not give the setting a test run here!

OPTIONAL SCENARIOS

01. ARRIVING IN THE DRABWURLD.
The Seelie and Unseelie courts welcome you not with mirthful revelry, this time around dear friends. There is a seriousness in the air, though the food is still hearty and the imps still mischievous. After you have been briefed on your purpose here, you will find an endless feast and a night filled with entertainment to placate your concerns. Mingle with new arrivals, sneak down the castle halls and make sure your eyes are always on your glass; fairies and imps have no bias when it comes to tricks!

02. THE STATION.
Looking for a little slice of home? The Station gives you all that and more. Take advantage of the wifi, have a cup of fairy-brewed coffee (the one they didn't spit in) or sit back and relax on the patio. You can even move your things into one of the available rooms!

03. WILDCARD.
Your own scenario! Explore the Drabwurld or simply take advantage of your Locket! Be mindful, though -- the monarchs are watching and cross court communication should be done with the utmost secrecy.

"That is the way of worlds throughout the galaxy," she says. It seems stating obvious to her. Why should universes be any less diverse than stars?

But it is less surprising the boy would not recognize it.

"Tell me," she says then. "Have you traveled far before coming here?"

What a loaded question. "It's hard to say. I mean, magic means I can't tell how far I literally traveled. But if you're asking how similar this place is to what I'm used to? It's...entirely, totally different."

Her lips twitch. It's difficult to tell for sure, but she might be amused by his response. Or she might think he's being evasive.

Either way.

"I meat the latter. Distances like these are not so easily measured."

"Yeah, I'll say."

He shrugs. "Like I said, it's totally different. I mean, people? People are the same everywhere. Mostly, anyway. And I don't mean that literally. But like... What drives people, their motivations and emotions and that need to prove themselves? I'm finding that's pretty similar across worlds. It's a good thing, I think."

"Is it?"

She pauses, considering. She isn't sure that she agrees. She isn't sure she disagrees either. Perhaps it is simply an angle that she never considered. She is not sure she sees a reason to consider it deeply now.

"Do so many people here have something to prove?" she asks instead of responding to the goodness of the thing.

Dick laughs, shaking his head. "Hey, it doesn't have to be a big thing to prove."

"Something small to prove would be more your size."

Was that a joke?

It might have been.

It's enough of one to make him laugh.

"Hey, I'll grow! Eventually."

"I would hope as much. You're young yet."

She isn't less unhappy with her situation, but at least she manages to unbend a bit. She's still tall and imposing, but her posture is less stiff. Her ribbons flick at the air irritably, but they're no longer lashing.

He watches them curiously, then turns back to looking at Angela. He sticks his hand out with a smile, "I'm Dick!"
